Reuse Room

Paint is the most prevalent household hazardous waste item received at facilities.

It is ILLEGAL to dispose of paint products in the trash, storm drain, or onto the ground.

Paint can easily be reused and recycled.

Do you need half a bottle of cleaning supplies? Maybe a few pints of paint? How about a half a bag of plant fertilizer?

Instead of buying bulky new products, Elk Grove residents can come to the Special Waste Collection Center’s Reuse Room and find a wide variety of new or partially used products for personal use only. When we collect products that are reusable, hazardous materials specialists will place them in the Reuse Room where Elk Grove residents can take them home FREE of charge.

Typical Household Items available for reuse may include:

Paint

Cleaners

Solvents

Home Improvement

Lawn and Garden Care

Pool Supplies

Wood Working Supplies
